A word of warning. The picture shown is not the PRO model.

The pro model is mac compatible. This picture shows the base model which is NOT Mac compatible.

Seeing the base model in action daily, my friend who sits next to me in a class, I am amazed by the speed, accuracy, reliability of this little device.

He uses it to scan chinese text from books and syllabus.

It is incredibly fast. The accuracy increases if your hand scans in a normal slower speed.

but if you are in a hurry, the text can come out as gibberish and take a while to review.

If you are student who needs to write a lot of book reports or do a lot of research in the library, this is a MUST have tool.

I want to buy the Mac compatible model (since I am not sure if this one listed is Mac compatible) and will add more review once I get one.

Top recommendations!!!

Sent receipt and mail-in rebate inside the allotted time however was told that they never received it and its out of their hands. They also said I should understand that I need to send things in timely manner and if I want I can check my status again at their website. I have no avenue other then to post poor review here.

Device works ok. Main purpose was to scan Chinese, Korean, and Japanese characters (from business receipts) into Google translate. This works okay but does require many do over's to catch the characters.

The one I got didn't work and looked like it had been repackaged, guess it didn't work for the last guy either. Bought a different brand that works, but don't have it handy right now. don't waste your time unless they fix the software...
